"Hammer Construction Services did a wonderful job on my mom's house. My dad had recently passed away, so it was a difficult time for the whole family. Having confidence in your contractor to show up and complete a project on time is priceless. Fortunately for us, Peter didn't use the same mindset of priceless, and provided us with a very fair price :). I would recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable contractor!"

"We were very impressed with Serrano Renovations. Diego responded to emails and texts promptly and showed up when he said he would. He and his team did a fantastic job installing lament floors and new baseboards in our condo in January 2020. Their work was excellent, reasonably priced, and they did the work quickly and efficiently. We are very happy with our new floors. We highly recommend Serrano Renovations. We will use them again for future home improvement projects."

"I’ve met Carlos while he was doing a remodel at my customer’s house. Since then we have added LeBirch Development to our team. He has been able to prove over and over again that no job is to big. He has finished to completion every job on a timely matter that we can keep up with him and his crew. He is puntual and on top of his game. He knows everything that’s is going in his jobs and will harass you to get what he needs to not fall behind. I’ve been in this business for over 17 years and met many contractors I truly can tell you that if you want a job done, professional, timely and from the what I hear affordable you can trust Lebirch Development and Construction ask for Carlos Neira. You won’t regret it !!!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
